Best Toner No. 7: Clarins Extra-Comfort Toning Lotion, Alcohol-Free, $25TotalBeauty.com average member rating: 9.3*
Why it's great: Readers love this toner for its "gentle" formula. "No stinging, no tightness, and no flaring," says one reader. "It does not dry your skin out or leave that tight feeling after use," agrees another.

Readers also say the product is "absolutely perfect for sensitive skin" because it's "calming and soothing." For all its gentleness, it still "gets the job done." The product "thoroughly and gently cleanses sensitive skin," says one TotalBeauty.com member. Her tip? "I douse some cotton pads and put them in a baggie to refresh on long flights."

I have very sensitive and oily skin. I normally do not use heavy creams, but since moisturization is really important, and after a recommendation I saw on youtube, I decided to give the Shielo Complexion Moisturizer a go. I am SO GLAD I did. The Shielo Complexion Moisturizer This does not cause me to break out, and it moisturizes well (although my skin is a bit shinier than usual in the morning now :). I love that there is a large amount in the jar. I think this will be my "official" moisturizer from now on!

I\'ve been using Olay\'s skin toner gentle years now, and I love it! It doesn\'t have that strong medicine-y smell of many other toners, and it\'s gentle enough to use twice a day. Definitely the best bang for your beauty buck!
